There are loads of trees on Ancestry which you have probably seen saying he was born Cumberland and mother was either Milton or Hilton

Where did you get the surname 'Milton' for the mother?

Do you know when Richard migrated to Australia?

Mmm, it doesn't say if his mother was Milton, I do have another baptism for the 22 June 1800 for Richard which say his parents are William and Mary...dead confusing, I don't want to assume..

Looking for a marriage for Richard Byers parents William Byers and Mary Milton around 1798-1800.. Not sure where as William was listed as "soldier" however Richard was born c1800, possibly Manchester, he died in Australia in 1866 aged 66. Any help appreciated.
